[jira] [Created] (NETBEANS-438) Cannot Sign Platform app due to symlink

Austin Stephens created NETBEANS-438:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Cannot Sign Platform app due to symlink
                 Key: NETBEANS-438
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-438
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: platform - Other
    Affects Versions: 9.0
         Environment: Mac OS X
            Reporter: Austin Stephens
            Assignee: Austin Stephens
             Fix For: 9.0


When you run "Package as->Mac OS X Application", it creates a .app that has a symlink as the main executable. Attempting to sign it with `codesign` results in the following error:
{noformat}
the main executable or Info.plist must be a regular file (no symlinks, etc.){noformat}
This can be solved by calling the resulting script via bash (resulting in another instance of bash...) or cd-ing to the script directory and sourcing it.
